I can't resist reiterating (at the risk of seeming obsessive) that the very same principle applies to someone accused of racism who vehemently denies being racist. Evidence in the form of their past words and deeds can be presented to show that they are, in fact, racist.https://twitter.com/michaelshermer/status/1370170284997812226 …

But who shows up when that happens says a lot about who you are and what you’re putting in the world and tells me which skeptics are inherently bad, hateful, racist, ideological etc. It’s why I despise the black duck, he’s no different from James Lindsay.

But aside from that Kendi had a good point, those pat denials are a sign of someone who can not introspect about their own racism. We all have some bad ideas banging around our heads from growing up in a racist culture. If confronted don’t deny error, ask how you can do better.
